Welcome Cinema + Kitchen present with The Frontline Club - THE POST

Join us for a night of captivating cinema, delicious international cuisine, and fascinating conversation as we host our final event of the summer: a screening of Steven Spielberg’s latest hit, The Post.

The Post is about a cover-up that spanned four U.S. Presidents and pushed the country's first female newspaper publisher and a hard-driving editor to join an unprecedented battle between the press and the government.

'The Post' is not a period movie. Instead, it is squarely addressed to the present day, striving for the urgency of a headline. The film is here to warn us of fresh threats to press freedom; to confirm that the battle between real news and fake news is not without precedent; and to raise a knowing titter. – The New Yorker

Before the film, join us for a delicious supperclub prepared by the talented Welcome Kitchen. Fresh off of a collaboration with Deliveroo for Refugee Week, the popularity of these refugee chefs keep growing. Try their food for yourself here!

We will also have a very exciting panel of cutting edge journalists here to shed light on current threats to freedom of speech. TBA.
